with only an Intel copyright on them.

cbc12b0a96 mk: do not generate LDLIBS from directory dependencies
The list of libraries in LDLIBS was generated from the DEPDIRS-xyz
variable. This is valid when the subdirectory name match the library
name, but it's not always the case, especially for PMDs.

The patches removes this feature and explicitly adds the proper
libraries in LDLIBS.

Some DEPDIRS-xyz variables become useless, remove them.

673e2fe586 distributor: remove checks for SSE4
Since SSE4 is now part of the minimum requirements for DPDK, we now longer
need this check.

c0de0eb82e distributor: switch over to new API
This is the main switch over between the legacy API and the new
burst API. We rename all the functions in rte_distributor.c to remove
the _v1705, and we add in _v20 in the rte_distributor_v20.c

We also rename the rte_distributor_next.h as rte_distributor.h, as
this is now the public header.

At the same time, we need the autotests and sample app to compile
properly, hence those changes are in this patch also.

6690f105dc distributor: add SIMD flow matching
Add an optimised version of the in-flight flow matching algorithm
using SIMD instructions. This should give up to 1.5x over the scalar
versions performance.

Falls back to scalar version if SSE4.2 not available

775003ad2f distributor: add new burst-capable library
This patch includes the code for new burst-capable distributor library.

It also includes the rte_distributor_next.h file which will
be used as the public header once we add in the symbol versioning
for v20 and v1705 APIs, at which stage we will rename it to
rte_distributor.h.

The new distributor code contains a very similar API to the legacy code,
but now sends bursts of up to 8 mbufs to each worker. Flow ID's are
reduced to 15 bits for an optimal flow matching algorithm.

73f08e03c9 distributor: rename legacy files
Move files out of the way so that we can replace with new
versions of the distributor library. Files are named in
such a way as to match the symbol versioning that we will
apply for backward ABI compatibility.

feb9f680cd mk: optimize directory dependencies
Before this patch, the management of dependencies between directories
had several issues:

- the generation of .depdirs, done at configuration is slow: it can take
  more than one minute on some slow targets (usually ~10s on a standard
  PC without -j).

- for instance, it is possible to express a dependency like:
  - app/foo depends on lib/librte_foo
  - and lib/librte_foo depends on app/bar
  But this won't work because the directories are traversed with a
  depth-first algorithm, so we have to choose between doing 'app' before
  or after 'lib'.

- the script depdirs-rule.sh is too complex.

- we cannot use "make -d" for debug, because the output of make is used for
  the generation of .depdirs.

This patch moves the DEPDIRS-* variables in the upper Makefile, making
the dependencies much easier to calculate. A DEPDIRS variable is still
used to process library dependencies in LDLIBS.

After this commit, "make config" is almost immediate.

133b75923b mk: add library version extension
To differentiate libraries that break ABI, we add a library version number
suffix to the library, which must be incremented when a given libraries ABI is
broken.  This patch enforces that addition, sets the initial abi soname
extension to 1 for each library and creates a symlink to the base SONAME so that
the test applications will link properly.

08ccf3faa6 distributor: new packet distributor library
This adds the code for a new Intel DPDK library for packet distribution.
The distributor is a component which is designed to pass packets
one-at-a-time to workers, with dynamic load balancing. Using the RSS
field in the mbuf as a tag, the distributor tracks what packet tag is
being processed by what worker and then ensures that no two packets with
the same tag are in-flight simultaneously. Once a tag is not in-flight,
then the next packet with that tag will be sent to the next available
core.
